      So what you are saying is the issue exists with you on Opera Stable (does not load), except with a clean profile.

      Yep. When I created a new clean profile, the page started to load.

      And with developer version with a clean profile it does NOT load.

      That's it.

        Obviously there's something in leo and my Opera setup/preferences etc that prevents it from loading.

          Found the culprit, in "browser.js" if you search for "pandora" (opening it with notepad), you will see a few occurrences of this word.

          I closed Opera, renamed browser.js, and reopened Opera, voila, Pandora loads.

          So...is there any way to edit browser.js so as to remove the pandora references...or does Opera actually need this file at all (I see that when I rename it, Opera will write a new "browser.js". If I just leave THIS new one, what happens to Opera's performance??

          Or...is there some way to go to "flags" and disable or enable something under the "javascript" topic??

          There is an entry in browser.js::

          "PATCH-1251: Avoid requiring Flash player on pandora.com"

            Nope, it would probably make the file to be seen as invalid an a new one would be downloaded.

            If I just leave THIS new one, what happens to Opera's performance??

            Browser.js has been around since a decade most probably and it's used to fix some bad pages.

              That's better, ๐Ÿ†™
              You may compare Pandora's line in both files and post it, then Leo could check if has the same.

              About the questions, didn't dive into that file.
              But if I'm not wrong, contains workarounds for some sites to make them work.
